Well we are working on making some travel plans for our 15th wedding anniversary. We would like to find a cheap vacation spot for 7-10 people and in the fall. It's easy to travel in the fall for us because NikiRhe is still small and she will be home-schooled... but we have some other family members that we would like to join us that won't be able too if because their kids are in public school.
I'm checking out a number of options because I'd love to have some family there so that we can have a few private moments without the little one because her daddy won't let her stay in Tulsa while we are out of the country.. I totally understand though I'd never be able to enjoy myself knowing I was too far from my baby to get to her in an emergency. Besides I want her with us! :o)
So some of our options are a Disney cruise to the Caribbean or Bahamas, an all inclusive trip to a Mexico destination or a trip to one of the Disney's. I really want to go to Mexico and renew our vows on the beach on the evening of our anniversary with our family there to witness. It will be so special!
Now I just have to find the right place for the right price for a group of people to travel fairly cheap.

Caring for a Sick Child
As a mother we have many jobs. One of them is comforting our children when they are sick. Cuddling them, or feeding them or even cleaning them up. My daughter started feeling bad Friday night and on Saturday she was throwing up and running fever. My hubby called me to say that she had developed a rash on her chest about mid day. I was not home because I've started a small business and was at the flea market.
So I was feeling terrible that my baby girl was at home with her daddy feeling ill and I was not home to care for her.
We have spent the week thus far reading books watching PBS Kids and snuggling on the couch and in my bed every chance we get! LOL
When she feels out of sorts she wants to snuggle and it is such a wonderful bonding moment. I don't understand those people who think that a child should be forced into "self soothing" They are babies! They need love and they need to be held! It just breaks my heart to know that people are so cold, that they won't comfort a child when they are upset.
